IKEA recalls IRIS and ALVINE Roman blinds for repair
ALVINE Roman blind
IRIS Roman blind
IKEA kindly asks all customers who have bought an IRIS or ALVINE Roman blind with date stamp 0823 or earlier to contact the Exchanges and Returns Department of their local store or the Customer Services team on 0845 358 3364 to receive a repair kit by post, free of charge.
The repair kit includes a set of cord stops and assembly instructions. No other types of window coverings are affected.
IRIS and ALVINE Roman blinds do not comply in full with a voluntary US industry safety standard for this type of product. The standard requires that blind operating cords are fitted with cord stops to reduce the risk of entanglement in cord loops.
We recommend customers who have an IRIS or ALVINE Roman blind with date stamp 0823 (yyww) and earlier attach the cord stop. The IKEA logo, supplier number and date stamp appear on a white label attached to the blind. IRIS and ALVINE Roman blinds with date stamp 0830 and later are fitted with cord stops and comply in full with the voluntary standard.
For more information customers can call IKEA Customer Services on 0845 358 3364 or visit the IKEA Website www.IKEA.co.uk
